West Coast Lifestyle: Las Vegas

You haven’t truly lived until you have lived/ experienced the West coast lifestyle. They say the West Coast is the best coast! Although it is expensive it is definitely a different change in pace for East coast people. Here are a few tips when traveling to Vegas.

1. Don’t rent a car! All the hotels on the strip will charge you a daily fee for simply parking your rental car on their lot during your stay. Just uber or lyft everywhere.
2. Excalibur is the cheapest hotel located on the Las Vegas strip. So stay there to be close to all the action
3. Drai’s Day/nightclub is the most exciting spot. During the day you can attend a pool party with live DJ and ample dancefloor room. At night they have a lot of big performers who perform there ie: Cardi B and Migos
4. Outdoor Gondola ride at the Venetian is an absolute must. The building itself is themed with all Italian décor but, these gondola boat drivers will sing to you in Italian during the ride. They also offer a special occasion boat ride for just two for anniversaries and proposals! Cough cough
5. Camel Safari located 1 hour away from the main strip in the middle of the desert is this safari compound where you can ride camels and see sloths, armadillos and porcupines up close.
6. Zipline along Fremont street where all the bars and amazing stores truly are. or you can zipline near the strip from the roof of the Rio Hotel.
7. Try to eat at Hell’s Kitchen who knows you might meet Gordan Ramsey himself.
8. Siegfried and Roy Secret Garden and Dolphin Habitat at the Mirage is to die for if you are an animal lover. There you can paint and swim with dolphins or touch one and see huge tigers and lions
9. Volcano show at the Mirage- only seen at night. Call hotel in advance to find out exact time
10. Fountain show at Bellagio hotel so beautiful at night.Great place for lovers and family
11. Eiffel tower experience at the Paris Las Vegas hotel. Great place on the rooftop of the mock Eiffel tower to watch the Fountain show. Great pictures to be taken here as well.

Here is a list of helpful videos for you to understand how many amazing things Vegas has to offer. https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=bellagio+fountain+show&view=detail&mid=597B5BF72C4270B47170597B5BF72C4270B47170&FORM=VIRE

Mrytle Beach Safari: USA Hidden Gem where you can play with tigers!

In South Myrtle beach there exists a hidden gem known as Myrtle Beach safari that is by far the most interactive zoo around; Owned by Dr. Mahamayavi Bhagavan aka Doc Antle. He created a massive 50 acre wildlife preserve where his professional animal trainers sleep, eat, train all types of endangered species. Inside the compound, you will take a 3.5 hour walking tour to see, hold, touch, and play with actual wildlife species. On the tour, you will see Bubbles the elephant, two funny chimpanzees that will paint for you, massive Bengal and snow tigers, a naturally made 700 lb. Liger (Lion and tiger mix), gibbons, Ramses the cheetah, Lynx, bobcats, tiger cubs, lemurs, to name a few. This is unlike any experience you will ever encounter. For just $499 you can embark on this 3.5 hour tour and play with these animals during the day or even at night! There is a day and a night safari tour available. I suggest that you purchase a package with the day or night safari and preservation station to have a whole day spent with these animals. Photos are included in this price. Videos can be purchased as well but, at a higher price. You will be fed a generous lunch, snack and drinks during the tour.  All proceeds benefit the T.I.G.E.R.S (The Institute for Greatly Endangered and Rare species) worldwide benefit fund.

Don’t wait another day! Book your tour now!
